Albany Medical Center's accredited radiation oncology is a leader in state-of-the-art technology and treatment methods for adults and children. We work collaboratively with radiation oncologists, nursing specialists, medical physicists, dosimetrists, radiation therapists, and supportive care professionals.

Radiation therapy uses high-dose radiation to shrink tumors by destroying cancer cells. It may be used alone or with chemotherapy and surgery. Our individualized approach enables us to limit side effects, improve outcomes, and enhance overall quality of life.

As an academic medical center, we are proud to offer the very latest in radiation technology, meaning patients can receive the targeted treatment they need.
